I used to stay at Red Lion properties years back for work meetings. It was a top hotel at the time. This property was in very poor condition - hall carpets were dirty, wall moldings in terrible shape. But the bed was clean and very comfortable. The breakfast bar was very good, the staff was doing the best they could with what they had to work with.

This is an old property, that was once one of the most premier hotels in Boise, but they’ve let it fall apart a bit. Base all your expectations on that first. A lot of reviews mention the AC not working, and maintenance fixing it, well I was there only one night and so I didn’t get it fixed, certainly report it if yours doesn’t work so you don’t leave the next guest HOTTT The rooms are super clean, the staff is really friendly, there is a lots of parking, and while it’s not right downtown, it’s definitely not a far walk, right on the edge of downtown near the greenway. I would recommend it, for the price, but check everything in your room works before unpacking, and mention it to the desk immediately if not so they can relocate you or work on it.

Not impressed. We arrived at 2:30 and we were told per the manager we couldn’t check in until 3pm. The check in line was long and the staff were doing a shift change at check in time. While waiting in line the power in the hotel went out. When we expressed concern of not being able to check in we were met with rude and sarcastic comments from the hotel staff. Cleaning staff was walking by when in the lobby area making jokes about the situation. The customer service was TERRIBLE. Our room wasn’t very clean. You could see so much dirt and debris under the edge of the bed where they have swept recently. Our floor didn’t have an ice machine on it. There was a sign that it was conveniently located on another floor. How is that convenient for your guests? Not impressed with the Red Lion Downtowner at all. You need to give your staff customer service training and make some improvements to your hotel at the very least.

Not the worst hotel, but this one is in a state of disrepair. The hallways had not been cleaned in a very long time. Glass was cracked on the front entry. There is water damage in the ceiling of the top floor. In our room, most of the outlets didn't work and neither did the bathroom fan. The Red Lion Inn felt like a big Motel 6. However, our room was clean. The best part of our stay was our interaction with the staff. They were kind and attentive.

I received a call 3 hours before check in time from the hotel informing me that they accidentally double booked my room. Even though I had booked the room months ago. The only reason I was initially not upset is because they didn’t completely put me out. They did book another room for me with a balcony and complementary breakfast. Not the end of the world but it was kind of unprofessional and wrong for them to give the room away to someone who booked the room after me. My only gripe is that the room’s thermostat was broken and the room was kind of hot. Also, the property’s bar lounge is only open on weekends.

I suggestook looking at a room before booking if you drive into town. No restaurants in the area I left and stayed at another motel. I booked without protecting my reservation so I'm out that money.
